by my last posting. It isn't tough, just sit down and post.....OH MY! One month has passed. June has been wet again in central Iowa. Our projects this summer are to work on the lanai. We had the electricity installed along with a PALM ceiling fan that I brought back from Texas. Love the power, no chords running from the garage under the door, inside to the TV and lamp. I should have done this years ago, and it was supposed to happen. there was a trade......two golf clubs made by my brother in exchange for the electric hook up.....they have the golf clubs........10 years later, I had to pay for the electricity.....oh well......
let's see, new boards on the east side of the lanai, as the original boards are rotten. not too hard a job. I hear y'all laughing. Yes, a few minor problems of cutting cement boards to fit around an outlet. I painted more today. We picked up boards to hammer on to keep out the rain. The roll up screens are not made to fit the screen openings. Also picked up some new indoor/outdoor carpet. Maynards, aka Menards had a sale this week. They had some crap......asked Home Depot if they would meet the price and they said yes, a much better product.....Wet basement, pulled out that carpet. We will paint some cracks in the foundation/floor of basement and lanai and maybe in a week, the summer projects will be done......time to relax and enjoy NO RAIN......one week until July 4th, then Summerfest in Ankeny, then off to Kirksville, home for a couple weeks, off to a band jam at the casino, family reunion......before I know it........October will be here and time to go back home to Texas.......carry on
